Hi all,

I have a question, and after surfing the Web without any answer I post it here to get some answer ...

What is the localization of key caps on a keyboard ? Me and Franco are finishing a nice PB application which works in english, french, german, italian and spanish, and I will probably add some others, but I cannot find the translations for key caps like :

- Home
- End
- PgUp
- PgDown
- etc ...

If one knows a Web page showing it or some of you can send locale translations except for french I know, this would be great.

Have a nice day.

Don't misunderstood me, but most times it is better to leave the definitions in pure english, coz translation are often very bad.

btw. here are my german keyboard translations:

- Home = Pos 1
- End = Ende
- PgUp = Bild Hoch
- PgDown = Bild Runter

Its a long way to the top if you wanna .....CodeGuru

Does my GetKeyName() procedure help? See here: http://tinyurl.com/j2k

Thank you both ...

GetKeyName helps to get the current key name used (with current Language). I will try to change Language and find my stuff so.

Thnx
